Already considered as one of the greatest ODI batsmen, Virat Kohli has also added the title of T20 prince to his name following a string of unbelievable performances in the ICC World Twenty20. He single-handedly took India to the semi-finals beating Australia in a nerve-wracking encounter. For the second consecutive time, Kohli was the highest run scorer in the mega event.

In only 4 Tests he played in the year so far he scored his maiden double century in the 1st Test against West Indies in the ongoing series. In ODIs he remains a master scoring two centuries and two fifties in only 5 matches.
